Churchill's grandson slams Trump: Horribly tacky bust decision
Sir Nicholas Soames, grandson of the legendary British Prime Minister Winston Churchill, criticized Donald Trump. He openly stated that the people of the US president "despise Europe really."
During Wednesday's session of the British International Relations and Defense Committee, 77-year-old Nicholas Soames delivered an emotional speech.
He also predicted that in future the "special relationship" between the UK and the US would not be "what it was." "I don’t think they want it to be," he said as quoted by "The Independent".
The grandson of Winston Churchill, who has long been associated with the British Conservative Party, also assessed that the people of Donald Trump truly "despise Europe."
Sir Nicholas Soames reacted particularly sharply to the fact that Donald Trump had once again placed a bust of his grandfather in the Oval Office. According to the British politician, this was a horribly tacky and completely ridiculous decision.
Trump has hit the EU many times
In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly accused the European Union of cheating the USA, suggesting that the EU was created precisely to exploit the United States.
He also recently wrote that Europe should focus less on Russia and more on resolving issues related to immigrants, whom he described as "rape gangs."
